15 MERLECREST DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 15 MERLECREST DRIVE sales between October 2001 and May 2018 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the August 2015 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the May 2018 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI.
